BOERS NL
YOUR CREW SPECIALIST IN THE NETHERLANDS
At Boers Crew Services, we're not afraid to say it: if anyone can help seafarers get on and off the vessel safely, quickly, and smoothly, it's us. We work across multiple locations in the Schengen area, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, but our headquarters in Schiedam (Rotterdam) will always be our true home port. This is where it all began, and where, to this day, we often achieve the seemingly impossible in a friendly but professional way.
Family business with broad expertise
Our family business has two families at the helm, and our phones have been ringing off the hook since 1946. With 65 employees in our Dutch offices, there is always an expert available to answer questions about everything from visas to finances. Because of our typical Rotterdam 'actions speak louder than words' attitude, we at Boers Nederland take up every request in the 'crew' area. However, we are also open and honest about those applications for which you should approach other companies. After all, we like to do things the right way or not at all.
Boers Crew Services' client base is very diverse. What's the common denominator? The fact that we have been able to provide our services to the majority of those who approach us for a very long time. As far as we are concerned, this is proof that we strive for and achieve the very best. In fact, we hardly ever say 'no' because we know how to find a way around almost everything. Add to that the fact that we work without agency fees, but rather with passion and enthusiasm. Plus, all this is done in an open, approachable, and familiar setting, which is also reflected towards our customers.
A solution for every challenge
With years of experience in the industry, an extensive network and the odd favour here and there, we have the knowledge, access, and goodwill necessary to find a solution every time. From volcanic eruptions to a pandemic, we have experienced it all and faced it head-on. We can therefore rightly say that no challenge is too great for us.
